Guys,

Talking to Steve on the phone and he had a great idea about the 
continuation quote problem.

This is the case where a quote starts, end paragraph for example, no 
close quotation marker, then a new line, a continuation quote marker, 
more of the quote and then the closing quote mark (matching the first one).

Steve observed that if you have:

<q>
<p></p>
<p></p>
</q>

The stylesheet should distinguish a <p> in an open quote and then insert 
the continuation quote marker.

Don't know if that will work in all cases but thought it was at least 
worth thinking about and putting a note in the users manual on dealing 
with that case.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Patrick
